Re: US Mexican War Veteran Lookup!

Here's what I found in the rosters that I have for Ohio soldiers in the Mexican War:

1st Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry Company F Name: Brown, William Rank when mustered in: Private Age when mustered in: 19 Date when mustered in: 6 June 1846 Period of service: 1 year Comments: Appointed Corporal 6 June 1846; reduced 10 October 1846; mustered out with company 15 June 1847.

This company (Company F) was recruited 6 June 1846 at Lower Sandusky, Ohio.

1st Regiment was organized at Camp Washington near Cincinnati on 28 June 1846 and departed a few days later on steamer 'New World' for New Orleans. Commanded by Col. Alexander M. Mitchell.

15th Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry Company I Name: Brown, William Rank when mustered in: Private Age when mustered in: ?? (left blank) Date when mustered in: 9 July 1847 Period of service: Indefinite Comments Mustered out with company on 4 Aug 1848.

No further info for this company.

There were Regiments 1,2,3,4, and 5, plus Independent Companies plus the 15th Regiment with Companies B,C,D,H, and I). Regiment 5 was officially called 2nd Regiment 2d.

There was no 6th Regiment of Ohio Volunteers in the Mexican War that I can find.

I hope that one of the above will match your William Charles Brown! Good luck!
